What a wonderful day at Joint Base Lewis McChord!! Thank you to everyone who attended and for all the LOVE! I hope you enjoyed your ‘mandatory’ training:) See pics from today below! Thank you to MSgt Brooks and iCorps SHARP program colleagues for bringing the important message of prevention back to JBLM. A little history on JBLM: On Oct. 1, 2010, JBLM was formally established as one of 12 joint bases worldwide. Joint Base Lewis–McChord is a training and mobilization center for all services and is the only Army power projection base west of the Rocky Mountains.

Thank you for the show it was very impactful and really touched my heart as I too have a younger brother that at some point will probably end up in a group home situation so thank you again

Bernie,
Thanks for the laughs and powerful message today. It was a pleasant surprise to have you deliver our mandatory training. I truly expected to be struggling with consciousness; you are a thoroughly entertaining, breath of fresh air. I appreciate you reaching out to our service members and sharing so openly with us. Next time I’m in Vegas, I will be sure to give Shawn a big Army Strong shout out!

You know why I’m here!
Thank you. The message was amazing
That was an outstanding performance! I was not expecting a comedian with such a powerful message. How the flow of the stand up went from funny hilarious to this pay attention serious atmosphere was very attracting. I enjoyed it and would defenitly volunteer to go this won’t be mandatory for me haha
Very good message
Thanks for sharing your story. Awesome show, thanks for doing what you do.
Thank you for coming out and for the amazing show. I wasn’t expecting the depth of the last part. Your message and story are both seriously powerful. Again thank you so much for coming out and speaking with all of the soldiers and civilians.
Bernie, thanks for bringing this very entertaining and much needed event to JBLM.
It was a great change of pace hearing your story. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for making us laugh and thank you for take your time to come and rise consciousness.
WOW what a show. By far the best Sharp Training I’ve ever had!!! You had me rolling & a few sad moments. I’ve been showing your card to family & soldiers already. Best of luck & God Bless you & your family. Sgt Lomax, Stacey
An excellent and creative way to present these issues that plague soldiers in everyday life. Relatable, honest, engaging, and hilarious! I have never seen SHARP been presented to such and astute audience. Bravo, Bernie! I wish you could come be our unit SHARP rep!
This training was not only educational, but also very inspiring! Thank you for sharing with us.

Thanks for the powerful message! It really touched me.
You are a great comedian
Thank you for the outstanding performance. It was not only education but entertaining. Sharing actual events really impacted the message you were teaching. 100% enjoyed it.
Thanks for the shoutout! #survivor
Berniiiieeeeee!
Thank you for putting sobriety back into the discussion of military lives, not just because of SHARP, but because alcohol and drugs really can wreck a persons life. I love how you shared your story to show us no matter how hard you think things get, you can always turn it around.
This probably was the first mandatory SHARP classes that I wasn’t struggling to stay awake! Great show and message, I literally was tearing up at the end hearing you talk about your brother. You’re very strong to tell your story while making people laugh about it! Thank you.
Your show was amazing. You’re struggle has been real, and you delivered a message through comedy that was so personal I feel most comics never even get close to. Thank you, for the laughs and the stories. Your show is more than just laughs. With your professionalism and talent you should be playing Vegas 😛
Service members are lucky to have you. Thank you again for taking the time to perform for us.
